This. Exactly this.

I've overheard potential buyers (not just at BMW, but all car dealerships) asking questions like:

- Can I get this car in an all-electric version? > No

- Can I get this car with AWD (dual motor) > No

- Can I get this car with autopilot > No

- Will this car receive updates over the air? > No

- Does the base model come with 300+ HP? > No

- Can I control this car using an app? > No

- Can I fuel/charge for free? > No

Then why pay 80k for a 5-series, if you can also get a tesla for that price?
